I asked the photography teacher and she said get a digital camera that has as many manual parts as possible (i think she means a camera that can be put into manual mode?). I was thinking an entry level DSLR such as the Canon Rebel XSI or Sony Alpha A200W, but possibly a high-end point and shoot. I really need some help!
the digital cameras must have as many manual parts to it. (so not just an auto focus lens



Answer
For the most camera of the investment, look for a Nikon D40 with AF-S 18-55 mm ED lens for under $470. It will be a good start and if you later decide to go pro, you will have your camera system started ...

Don't get hooked on the pixel count of cameras.

Why to use a UV filter in a Digital Camera?

I have recently purchased a Canon EOS Rebel XSi digital camera with two 18/55mm and 55/250mm lens with it. I would like to know if it is better if I were to buy a UV filter and use it or it is not required? I have also purchased a wide angle lens which I will attche to the 18/55mm lens to get a better wide angle . Do I need a UV filter over it ? Please advise.


Answer
It has much more to do with protecting the front element of your lenses than the little enhancement the UV can give to shots taken outdoors.

Replacing a $40 filter is cheap and easy. Having the front element of a lens repaired is expensive and takes time while the lens is visiting the Canon repair station.

Each lens you own should have some kind of filter on it; UV, skylight or clear glass ... your choice.

Cheap add-on lenses don't need a protective filter ... the filter may cost more than the lens in some cases.
